Description
Capacity and Performance
Capacity refers to the amount of storage space that a hard disk has, typically measured in terabytes (TB) or gigabytes (GB). The 400-AVHC Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS 12GBPS 256MB 512E Hard Disk has a capacity of 2.4 terabytes, which means it can store large amounts of data.
Performance refers to the speed and efficiency of the hard disk. The 400-AVHC Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS 12GBPS 256MB 512E Hard Disk has a high-performance 10K RPM spindle speed, which means it can quickly access and transfer data. Additionally, it has a SAS interface with a 12 Gbps data transfer rate, providing fast data transfer speeds. The hard disk also features a large 256MB cache, which helps to improve the performance.
In summary, the capacity of the hard disk determines how much data it can store and the performance determines how fast the hard disk can access and transfer data. Additionally, the random access performance and sequential access performance are also crucial factors that determine the performance of the hard disk. Random access performance measures the time taken to access specific data in the hard disk, while sequential access performance measures the time taken to read or write large chunks of data.
Reliability and Durability
Reliability refers to the ability of a hard disk to perform consistently and accurately over time, without failing or producing errors. Durability refers to the hard disk’s ability to withstand physical wear and tear.
The 400-AVHC Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS 12GBPS 256MB 512E Hard Disk is designed for reliability and durability. It has a high MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) rating, which is a measure of how long a hard disk can operate before failing. Additionally, it has a low AFR (Annual Failure Rate), which is a measure of the percentage of hard disks that fail within a year. These ratings indicate that the hard disk is less likely to fail or produce errors over time.
Additionally, the hard disk is also designed to withstand physical wear and tear. It features advanced vibration and noise protection that helps to reduce the impact of physical vibrations on the hard disk. This helps to ensure that the hard disk can continue to operate correctly even under harsh conditions.
In summary, the 400-AVHC Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS 12GBPS 256MB 512E Hard Disk is built for reliability and durability, with high MTBF and AFR ratings, advanced vibration and noise protection, and a durable design that helps to ensure it can continue to operate correctly even under harsh conditions.
Power Consumption
Power consumption refers to the amount of electrical power that a hard disk requires to operate. The 400-AVHC Dell 2.4TB 10K RPM SAS 12GBPS 256MB 512E Hard Disk has a relatively low power consumption rate. It uses an average of 7.5 watts when it is active, and an average of 5.5 watts when it is idle. This is considered to be energy efficient, which helps to reduce electricity costs and prolong the lifespan of the hard disk.
Additionally, this hard disk also has a feature called “PowerChoice” which allows users to adjust the power consumption to match their workload. This can be done by adjusting the spindle speed of the hard disk. Lowering the spindle speed reduces the power consumption, which can help to reduce electricity costs and prolong the lifespan of the hard disk.
It is also important to note that this hard disk also support “Power management” feature that allows it to enter into low power mode during idle period, this can help to save more energy and reduce electricity costs.
